Teenage Wasteland
- text, překlad

Boy, it’s late, walk me home, put your hand in mine,
Let the game stop and say “be my valentine”
You are, by far, the brightest star I’ve ever seen
And I never dreamed I’d be so happy that I could die.

Used to say that I was beautiful, like Cleopatra,
But you’re the king, too, so I would say I got you.
I flip my hair and make you stare and put my make-up on
And make up story about my life and that I’m very cherry-bomb.

And even then I knew that we were something serious,
That you would dominate my thoughts like radio deserious.
I see you in the hall like “hello, hello”
Up against the wall like let’s go, let’s go.

Let me take you out of this town,
Let me do it right now, baby.
Dancing till the dark, staying forever young,
Let’s get out of this place, ‘cause you’re starting to waste
We’ll film this teenage wasteland.

You will never see my face
If you don’t get me out of this place, oh, baby,
Oh, I’m crazy.
I’m leaving, are you coming with me?

With your longing, baby, hold me,
You’re my only one.
Watching television, kissing ‘till we see the sun.
So far we are safe in the dark
And I never dreamed that I’d be the queen and I’d be so happy that I could die.

You used to call yourself the Don and call me Diana
You always made me blush and say “shut up or you bananas”
You pull my hair and push me down and chase me, make me run,
You play me Biggy Smalls and then my first Nirvana song
So easy going, no one’s friends were really serious
I knew you love me by the way you looked in second period.

That you would dominate my thoughts like radio deserious.
I see you in the hall like “hello, hello”
Up against the wall like let’s go, let’s go.

Let me take you out of this town,
Let me do it right now, baby.
Dancing till the dark, staying forever young,
Let’s get out of this place, ‘cause you’re starting to waste
We’ll film this teenage wasteland.

You will never see my face
If you don’t get me out of this place, oh, baby,
Oh, I’m crazy.
I’m leaving, are you coming with me?

I know that they say that all I want is to have fun and get away for rainy days
I know that they think I’ve come undone, but oh, I was, I wanna run, run, run, run away.
I’m leaving, are you coming with me?

Let me take you out of this town,
Let me do it right now, baby.
Dancing till the dark, staying forever young,
Let’s get out of this place, ‘cause you’re starting to waste
We’ll film this teenage wasteland.

You will never see my face
If you don’t get me out of this place, oh, baby,
Oh, I’m crazy.
I’m leaving, are you coming with me?
